Me: Hello, will you be playing the Euro 2004 final.
Lady: What is that?
Me: Soccer.
Lady: No.
Suffice it to say, there was a lot of cursing when I got off the phone.
I can't find a place in the sacramento area that is civilized. Does anyone know where I can catch the game in this area?

I'm in mourningYet again England teased their fans into thinking they may go through, and yet again the dreaded penalties ended the hopes. Why that goal was disallowed is a mystery to me.

I've been curious about that. I'm not a footy fan but I've been watching. Some experts come on the TV and say bad decision, then others come on and say good decision. Who is right? It definitely looked to me like one of the players was obstructing the goalkeeper but I don't know if that is against the rules or not. I'd would have *thought* that it was. If it's OK then it would be a pretty good tactic to try and get someone in (without going offside!) between the goalkeeper and the ball whenever possible.

Why can't they grow their own ?
